Exciton Dynamics and Anisotropy in 2D Metal Organochalcogenolate Semiconductors by Lee, Woo Seok

“…This divergence in excitonic properties is attributed to the semi 1D Ag chains in AgSePh-F₂(2,3), in contrast to hexagonal 2D Ag network in AgSePh. This finding can be generalized to other blue-emitting 2D AgSePh-R compounds which exhibit either AgSePh-like or AgSePh-F₂(2,3)-like absorption spectra. …”

Self-healing cementitious composites by encapsulation techniques by Feng, Jianhang

“…In terms of the in-situ gelation and subsequent volume growth of hydrogels, a model for simulations of crack sealing evolutions by generated hydrogels was developed and simulation outcomes were in agreement with experimental findings. Based on the research in this thesis, it can be concluded that autonomous healing of cementitious composites can be enhanced with these novel encapsulation or immobilization techniques and the new self-healing strategy, whilst future research in robust autonomous healing, cost reductions and life cycle analysis can be conducted to further upgrade autonomous healing cementitious composites.…”
